Achilles Slot Review

Greek mythology is a very popular theme in the world of online gaming, and though most machines make use of the most popular and well-known heroes, from Hercules to Zeus, Real Time Gaming (RTG) offers players a chance to learn a little more about the hero Achilles and have a lot of fun doing it. Additionally, there is a fair amount of money to be won on this game. One of the most overlooked characters of Greek folklore, Achilles was a famed hero in the Trojan War who is perhaps most well-known for his heel, the only part of his body that vulnerable.

Though the fictional character may have had his weakness, the slot game named after him is strong in both design and functionality. A 20-line slot that offers players five reels to bet on, the game is classified by its makers as a medium volatility one. As most seasoned players will know, this means that there is a fair balance between regular payouts and large prizes. Though players can keep their bets small if they wish to do so, this is a great slot for those who like their wagers a little high. The maximum bet amount per line is R5, which means playing at the maximum for all 20 lines will cost you a hefty R100.

The symbols used on the reels represent the theme very well with iconic Greek banners and shields, a Trojan horse and even the illustrated face of the famed beauty, Helen of Troy. Some of the special symbols used in the game that yield higher payouts include Achilles himself, who is the wild symbol, as well as the city of Troy, which is a scatter symbol. Both of these can yield exceptional gains for players who are lucky enough to get them. If you're really having a good day and manage to hit five city of Troy symbols, you will get a payout of 500 times your original bet. Considering the maximum bet amount, this could translate to a fair bit of money.

Some of the game's special features include a lucky selection function that offers players free spins. When you spin and three or more Achilles images appear, you will be prompted to pick one. The one you pick will reveal a prize below of free spins, up to a maximum of 25. As an added bonus, when the free spins are in play, the scatter symbols will all change to symbols of Helen of Troy and Achilles, which means you could get a lot more big wins for your buck.

Wondering about the jackpot? Though you'll find that the jackpot Achilles slot offers is not as large as those from some of the RTG's other slots, a maximum of R50 000 awaits the player who wagers the maximum amount on a payline, and manages to get all five Achilles symbols on that payline. Additionally, the game offers players the chance to win a random jackpot, which is progressive and could be triggered after any spin.

An interesting and well-thought out game, Achilles' basic but attractive design, simple yet elegant functionality and impressive payouts for those lucky enough to win make is a great game for both new and seasoned players.
